Chocolate has been a universally favourite food for thousands of years – with civilisations as old as the Olmec enjoying its flavour.<\/p>\n

Now, to commemorate the ongoing Sky Candy Emporium experience set up by lastminute.com onboard London Eye, an expert shared her tips to better savour the taste of your favourite chocolate.<\/p>\n

She told Express.co.uk: \u201cThe chocolate-tasting experience that guests will get aboard the lastminute.com London Eye’s Sky Candy Emporium will truly tantalise their tastebuds.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut for anyone that can’t get along before it finishes on Sunday there’s lots of exciting experiments you can do to play around with chocolate’s flavour at home.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor example, if you aren’t a big fan of dark chocolate because of its sharpness, try sprinkling a little sea salt on top to reduce the bitterness and make it taste sweeter.<\/p>\n

\u201cOr, if it’s all getting too sweet, you can try pairing milk chocolate with acidic fruits like passionfruit or pineapple to provide the perfect sour\/sweet experience\u201d<\/p>\n

Other methods include letting it melt in the mouth versus chewing, as it allows the chocolate to coat your mouth and will intensify the flavours and enjoyment.<\/p>\n

A fact many may not be aware of is that chocolate tastes better with a fresh palate, and thus the morning presents the perfect time to enjoy it.<\/p>\n

Additionally, chocolate contains caffeine so can help keep you going through till lunchtime without the need for coffee.<\/p>\n

If you love dark chocolate try pairing with a berry drink, and with white chocolate, a lemon beverage cuts through beautifully.<\/p>\n

But if you\u2019re a milk chocolate fan, coffee is a clear winner providing enhanced bitterness.<\/p>\n
